I voted entry 1 and not just because I love Kaytay...

it's a nice flag.

I like PL's too, but I found the resemblance to the American flag a little redundant. That's just my take. I like PL's color choice better though.

You're not the only one.

This is my least favourite of my entries...

The colors are supposed to match the Checkmate 3 theme. :/

Well, it does a good job of showing our CRF origins (whether intentionally or unintentionally).

It's not supposed to be about chess or checkers or racing. Just a design. I thought it looked nice.

Well, either way, I think it looks very nice.

I was just thinking about that, actually!

I didn't list a ribbon as a prize in the original topic (since it was created before I introduced ribbons), but it's a very good flag, so I think it deserves one.

So, I think I'll give you a ribbon for it :) .

I'll concede defeat (though I'll now admit the only reason I voted for my flag was because it was my entry).

We should do another one of these, maybe with a more general theme, though.

We could do another one with a different theme.

In fact, if you have any ideas for a better theme, then go right ahead and start one. This isn't really the place to discuss it, though, so I'll close this topic, now that the poll/contest is over.
